Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram illustrating the inside of a terrestrial DMB receiver to which an apparatus for receiving a disaster broadcast according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is applied.

Referring to FIG. 1, the terrestrial DMB receiver includes an RF module 100, an MPEG decoder 102, a transparency control module 104, a TII timing module 106, a carrier power detection module 108, a TII decoder 110, The disaster notification signal generation module 112, the control module 114, the power control module 116, the warning message sending module 118 and the timer 120 are included.

Here, the RF module 100 receives a terrestrial RF broadcast signal through a receiving antenna, converts a signal of a desired channel among the RF broadcast signals into an IF signal, converts the converted IF analog signal into a digital signal, and then in-phase ( I) The signal and quadrature (Q) signal are separated, and the time and frequency synchronization is corrected, followed by a fast Fourier transform (FFT) for converting time data into frequency data and output.

The MPEG decoder 102 source-decodes the MPEG data output from the RF module 100 and then outputs it to an external display device such as an LCD through the transparency control module 104.

The TII timing detection module 106 detects null symbols from the analog broadcast signal in the RF module 100 of the terrestrial DMB receiver and then detects timing information of the TII signal using the detected null symbols.

The carrier power detection module 108 transmits a fast Fourier transformed TII signal according to the TII timing information to determine whether TII information is present in a disaster broadcast or general broadcast stream received by the terrestrial DMB receiver in a standby mode or a normal driving state. Acquired through 100 to detect carrier power. The TII stores a disaster area code value and a location code value of a transmitter that transmits a broadcast stream, and the TII timing information includes a generation period and a generation / end time point of the TII signal.

The TII decoder 110 decodes the fast Fourier transformed TII signal when the detected carrier power value is greater than or equal to a predetermined reference value and transmits a location code value and a disaster area code value of a transmitter for transmitting a broadcast stream in a fast information channel (FIC) header part. It extracts and provides it to the disaster notification signal generation module 112.

The disaster notification signal generation module 112 generates a disaster notification signal and provides it to the control module 114 when the location code value and the disaster area code value match. When the location code value and the disaster area code value are the same, the disaster notification signal generation module 112 generates a disaster notification signal to inform that the location of the terrestrial DMB receiver is in a disaster area.

The control module 114 controls the power control module 116 to release the standby mode state of the terrestrial DMB receiver in response to the disaster notification signal to supply power to the terrestrial DMB receiver or to the display device through the MPEG decoder 102. A control signal for controlling the transparency of the displayed general broadcast stream is generated and provided to the transparency control module 104, or a control signal is generated and provided to the warning message sending module 118 to notify of a disaster.

When the standby mode is converted to the normal operation mode, the terrestrial DMB receiver receives the broadcast stream received through the disaster broadcast channel through the RF module 100 and displays it on the external display device through the MPEG decoder 102.

The timer 120 operates based on the timing information detected by the TII timing detection module 106 in the standby mode, and operates while the TII signal is not received. As the operation of the timer 120 is stopped, the power control module 116 transmits an RF module 100, a TII timing detection module 106, a carrier power detection module 108, and a TII decoder so that a disaster broadcast stream can be received. 110, powers the disaster alert signal generation module 112 and the control module 114, and drives only the control module 114 and the timer 120 when the timer 120 is in operation.

Accordingly, the transparency control module 104 adjusts the transparency of the screen of the general broadcast stream displayed on the display device and displays it on the display device.

The warning message sending module 118 sends a predetermined warning sound through the speaker or sends a predetermined message to the display device in response to the control signal.

The carrier power detection module 108 obtains a fast Fourier transformed TII signal through the RF module 100 according to the TII timing information to determine whether TII information exists in the disaster broadcast stream, and then detects carrier power. It is determined whether the power value is equal to or greater than a predetermined reference value (S206, S208).

As a result of the determination in step S208, if the detected carrier power value is equal to or greater than a predetermined reference value, the TII decoder 110 decodes the TII signal, extracts the transmitter location code value and the disaster area code value from the FIC header, and generates a disaster notification signal generation module. In operation S210, the process proceeds to step S202 and performs a subsequent step.

The disaster notification signal generation module 112 determines whether the location code value and the disaster area code value match (S212).

As a result of the determination in step S212, in case of a match, the disaster notification signal generating module 112 generates a disaster notification signal and provides it to the control module 114 to notify that the user of the terrestrial DMB receiver is in the disaster area. ) Supplies power to the terrestrial DMB receiver by controlling the power control module 116 to normally drive the terrestrial DMB receiver in a standby mode.

It is determined whether the power value is equal to or greater than a predetermined reference value (S304, S306).

As a result of the determination in step S306, when the detected carrier power value is equal to or greater than a predetermined reference value, the TII decoder 110 decodes the TII signal, extracts the location code value and the disaster area code value of the transmitter, and sends the signal to the disaster notification signal generating module 112. If not (S308), otherwise proceeds to step S300 and performs the subsequent steps.

The disaster notification signal generation module 112 determines whether the location code value and the disaster area code value match (S310).

As a result of the determination in step S310, in order to inform that the user of the terrestrial DMB receiver is in a disaster area, the disaster notification signal generating module 112 generates a disaster notification signal and provides it to the control module 114 (S312). The module 114 provides a control signal for controlling the transparency of the broadcast stream currently displayed through the display device to the transparency control module 104 or sends a control signal for outputting a predetermined warning sound or a message.
